Anthony K's suggestions will not be persistent (won't last a
shutdown/reboot). But they will be enough to regain network access and SSH
into the system from the comfort of your workstation/laptop.

@Anthony,
Thanks for sharing your examples.
I've gotten spoiled by using the "ip addr show" shortcut of "ip a s". So
much so that I try to do "ip l s" for "ip link show", which doesn't work.
Given the error message: Not enough information: "dev" argument is
required. I figure ip tools thinks I'm attempting to set something on the
interface. Anyhow, your "ip l l" shortcut appears (see my manpage comment
below) to evaluate to "ip link list", which is awesome! Shortcuts for the
win.
On a CentOS 6.6 system per the ip manpage, it seems that "list" is
undocumented for link and addr.
(Certainly correct me if I'm wrong ... I did find a TLDP page with an
example of "ip link list", so it's known by some.)
